"isn't 'exciting assignment' a contradiction in terms?"

once again, a day full of surprises. i just wish they're not work-related though. it would've been easier to feel more enthusiastic.

on a happier note:

my bed is now an official part of my brother's room. my mom exchanged my mattress with their old one. it was a lot softer than mine so no complaints there. i woke up this morning feeling refreshed and slightly annoyed with my alarm clock. but all was good.

i slacked off a bit during work hours as i have this client meeting (again) which really destroys my momentum. i'll just have to get everything done by tomorrow. i'm not the slightest bit worried about that. i guess i've finally learned what detachment really means.


ROOM UPDATE:

my walls are pink and they were able to finish the first coating of coco brown for my cabinets. i am still worried for some reason. it is not generating the same effect it had in my head.

uh oh.

disclaimer:  i cannot seem to get myself together.  i've been away from home for almost a week and my head is still in safe mode or something.  my thoughts are just completely out of whack and it may take a while before i reboot.  so please bear with all the unnecessary bullshit, grammatical errors and insane language. a lot of friends have been asking me how things are over here.  well...contrary to what people say (and by 'people', i meant my agency), its not as easy as they make it out to be. but i am getting ahead of myself. first things first. before i arrived in auckland, i had to endure a long and bitter flight from manila.  since there is no such thing as a direct flight, my itinerary said that i have a 4-hour layover in Singapore.  this is fine.  my ticket also included meals and 40kg worth of check-in luggage.  i carried a backpack and a sling bag for my carry-on with the latter starting to (horribly) disintegrate a...

week 3: independence ba kamo?

this is by far the most interesting week, though in a way, the most depressing one as well.  but where to start?  hmm.  well, i finally found the courage to actually walk-in and ask for a part-time job.  and knowing what a geek i am, where do i do that exactly?  at the city library of course.  haha.  how fucking crazy is that?  anyway, i wanted to go to that art film thing and since it's just next to the library, it was a 2 birds and 1 stone scenario. the library people just basically told me to fuck off which wasn't cool haha.  so i went to the cinema hoping it gets better.  when i got there, there was no one around.  i walked around a bit.  went back and the place was still deserted.  then i saw a doorbell thing and it says "academy cinema" or something to that effect.  so i rang it.  some rude guy picked up and basically told me to wait until 6pm and to fuck off.  what the hell is up with the univer...
